JSGS: JPEG State-Guided Supervision for 3D Gaussian Splatting from Mixed-Quality Views

Standard 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) assumes that every input image faithfully samples scene radiance. However, mixed-quality JPEG images violate this assumption because compression-induced blocking and ringing artifacts can corrupt updates to Gaussians shared across views. To address this problem, we propose JPEG State-Guided Supervision for 3D Gaussian Splatting from Mixed-Quality Views (JSGS). JSGS uses luminance and chrominance quantization tables stored in each JPEG file to construct a view-specific JPEG observation operator. This operator encodes and decodes each rendered view for domain-matched comparison with the corresponding decoded input image. The luminance quantization table supplies continuous weights within a fixed middle frequency band. A loss in the low frequency band anchors coarse structure, while the weighted middle frequency loss redistributes supervision among the selected DCT coordinates. The resulting block disagreement also guides the Gaussian Controller to regularize small primitives with high opacity in disagreement regions. Across seven scenes and three mixed-quality schedules, JSGS achieves the lowest mean LPIPS and the highest mean SSIM under every schedule while rendering at approximately 150 FPS.

Reflectance Prediction-based Knowledge Distillation for Robust 3D Object Detection in Compressed Point Clouds

Regarding intelligent transportation systems, low-bitrate transmission via lossy point cloud compression is vital for facilitating real-time collaborative perception among connected agents, such as vehicles and infrastructures, under restricted bandwidth. In existing compression transmission systems, the sender lossily compresses point coordinates and reflectance to generate a transmission code stream, which faces transmission burdens from reflectance encoding and limited detection robustness due to information loss. To address these issues, this paper proposes a 3D object detection framework with reflectance prediction-based knowledge distillation (RPKD). We compress point coordinates while discarding reflectance during low-bitrate transmission, and feed the decoded non-reflectance compressed point clouds into a student detector. The discarded reflectance is then reconstructed by a geometry-based reflectance prediction (RP) module within the student detector for precise detection. A teacher detector with the same structure as the student detector is designed for performing reflectance knowledge distillation (RKD) and detection knowledge distillation (DKD) from raw to compressed point clouds. Our cross-source distillation training strategy (CDTS) equips the student detector with robustness to low-quality compressed data while preserving the accuracy benefits of raw data through transferred distillation knowledge. Experimental results on the KITTI and DAIR-V2X-V datasets demonstrate that our method can boost detection accuracy for compressed point clouds across multiple code rates. We will release the code publicly at https://github.com/HaoJing-SX/RPKD.

Boosting 3D Object Detection with Semantic-Aware Multi-Branch Framework

In autonomous driving, LiDAR sensors are vital for acquiring 3D point clouds, providing reliable geometric information. However, traditional sampling methods of preprocessing often ignore semantic features, leading to detail loss and ground point interference in 3D object detection. To address this, we propose a multi-branch two-stage 3D object detection framework using a Semantic-aware Multi-branch Sampling (SMS) module and multi-view consistency constraints. The SMS module includes random sampling, Density Equalization Sampling (DES) for enhancing distant objects, and Ground Abandonment Sampling (GAS) to focus on non-ground points. The sampled multi-view points are processed through a Consistent KeyPoint Selection (CKPS) module to generate consistent keypoint masks for efficient proposal sampling. The first-stage detector uses multi-branch parallel learning with multi-view consistency loss for feature aggregation, while the second-stage detector fuses multi-view data through a Multi-View Fusion Pooling (MVFP) module to precisely predict 3D objects. The experimental results on the KITTI dataset and Waymo Open Dataset show that our method achieves excellent detection performance improvement for a variety of backbones, especially for low-performance backbones with the simple network structures.
